Cancer screening tests save lives. Getting screened can help your primary care provider (PCP) find abnormal cells or cancer at an early stage before symptoms appear. When cancer is found early, it may be easier to treat or cure. That is why it is important to get screened.

When to get recommended cancer screening tests
At your next visit, ask your PCP which screening tests you are due for.
Breast cancer screening
Routine mammograms help find breast cancer early. This screening test is used to find changes in the breasts, even before a lump can be felt.
- 40-49 years old: Ask your PCP about your specific risks for breast cancer and when to get your first mammogram.
- 50-75 years old: Get a mammogram every one to two years. Talk to your PCP about when you are due for your next mammogram.
Colorectal cancer screening
Screening has been shown to prevent cancer in the colon. Different screening tests are used to find signs of colorectal cancer.
- 45-49 years old: Get your first colorectal cancer screening. Ask your PCP how often you should be screened and which test to get.
